quite some time ago, just out of curosity and while sitting in a train, I build the GTK client for my Zaurus 860. The biggest problem is that the PDA displays are so small and the GTK client isn't optimized for size at all. So its no real fun using it. I rather prefer to wait for a nice web client :-) Best Jan -- Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner | ++49-541-335084-0 | http://www.greenbone.net/ Greenbone Networks GmbH, Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrück | AG Osnabrück, HR B 202460 Geschäftsführer: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wald.intevation.org/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
